4.4 Regional Parking Management

Description

Finding Parking in Kansas City, especially in the downtown environment, presents a problem for visitors during peak seasons for tourism and activities in the city. The problem is more about finding available parking and not about parking capacity. Parking venues are operated by a number of providers but there is no information for travelers to know where parking is available. The result is vehicles wandering the streets looking for available parking, creating traffic congestion in the process, and disturbing the flow of traffic. Technology exists to monitor parking availability through space monitoring or entry/exit counters. Advanced technology is emerging with connected vehicles that provides direct communication between parking venues and individual vehicles seeking parking. The objective of this project is to work with the parking operators to implement technology or supply data about parking space availability to a central database to inform travelers before departing, en-route or upon arrival in at their destination about parking availability. Connected vehicle applications should also be considered for future expansion.
